[OpenPower-Firmware] sbe fails to build, parsAndCutElf.py should be objcopy?

[Stewart Smith]

On Fedora 33 (x86-64) current op-build (and v2.6) fails to build in the SBE code as it errors out in src/build/parsAndCutElf.py

Even with the below "fix" I still end up getting errors as we hit the
    if( (startSize == 0) or (endSize == 0)):
        exit(-1)
chunk later. So... I'm trying to work out what this script does that couldn't be achieved with objcopy.

Anyone have any ideas?
